Leland Shaw goes on the run and takes a trip to Alaska.

After the world-building of the first two episodes, the TV iteration of the Monsterverse settles into an exciting action adventure. Having escaped from his Monarch-monitored retirement home, Shaw and his team manage to evade customs in South Korea before embarking on the trail of Cate and Kentaro’s father.

We still get flashback moments, this time to 1954 and a young Shaw witnessing the military luring Godzilla out of hiding so they can blast him with a nuclear bomb (when will they learn?!), but the majority of the episode is on Shaw and his young companions who find the lost helicopter but not its occupant. They also find a chilly Titan beast…

Verdict: Monster fun with an engaging cast. 8/10
